Transforming wedding and event venues across London

Whether you’re planning a wedding, a special celebration or an event for your business, getting the atmosphere just right is essential. Decorating and dressing your venue is a vital part of your special day, but there’s so much to consider and so many things to do.

That’s where we can help. At Special Occasion Hire, our role is to transform your venue, to create a stunningly attractive setting that helps bring your dream alive.

Creating the perfect setting for your wedding or special event

First of all we like to meet with you, to talk about your event and discuss everything to make sure we create the ideal setting. We provide everything from chair covers, sashes and lighting to table cloths and napkins, candelabras and even chocolate fountains. We set up and dress the venue for you, and take it all away again at the end of the day.

We’re there to make sure everything goes smoothly – and to take some of the load off you. We’re proud of our reputation for reliability, and for providing high quality, cost-effective services. We also draw on our experience working in fashion and design to ensure your venue look truly amazing on the big day.

Please take a look around and find out more about our services, provided across London, Essex and the wider South East. We can hire out materials such as chair covers, sashes and more if that is all you need. Or we can provide a full, personal and dedicated service. Your first consultation meeting is completely free, so get in touch today, and let’s talk about transforming the venue for your special day.

Make your guests notice when they enter your wedding or event venue.

It’s an old saying that first impressions really do count. If you want to create the wow factor at your wedding or event, you need to create a great first impression.

The easiest way to do this is by making your guests gasp as soon as they enter the room. Make your guests take notice of your venue decoration so that they immediately know they’re at something special. This will set the tone for the rest of the day.

Your guest will thank you for inviting them to such a beautiful special occasion. And your friend and family will realise that you truly appreciate them by taking your wedding or event to a higher level, design wise.

They’ll feel uplifted by the special occasion and that you value your friendship with them by putting so much thought and effort into your event.

Make your guests think about what you’ve created and give them something to immediately talk about. It can be the ultimate ice-breaker too. It lets everyone connect on a similar emotional level which is generally a better way to start than waiting for someone to break the ice with some meaningless small talk. You have instantly created a wonderful atmosphere and your guest will be more relaxed and ready to enjoy themselves.

Hi Rosemary,

“The feedback for this event was fantastic. Everyone who entered the building loved the decor. They loved the concept and the design from the main gates of the building to the inside. They loved the qwerky concept designs which I am proud to take some credit for but I would not be able to do it without the materials provided by Special Occasion Hire.
